Expression data from human AML cell lines


ABSTRACT: Pediatric Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) is an aggressive and poor prognosis malignancy for which there are few effective targeted approaches, despite the numerous genetic alterations, including MLL gene rearrangements (MLL-r). The histone methyltransferase DOT1L is involved in supporting proliferation of MLL-r cells, for which a target inhibitor, Pinometostat, has been evaluated in a clinical trial recruiting pediatric MLL-r leukemic patients. However, modest clinical effects have been reported. Recent studies reported that additional leukemia subtypes lacking MLL-r are sensitive to DOT1L inhibition. Here we report that targeting DOT1L with Pinometostat sensitizes pediatric AML cells to further treatment with the multi-kinase inhibitor Sorafenib, irrespectively of MLL-r. DOT1L pharmacologic inhibition induces AML cell differentiation and modulated expression of genes with relevant roles in cancer development. Such modifications in transcriptional program impact on further treatments, inducing a strong sensitization to Sorafenib, with increased apoptosis and growth suppression of both AML cell lines and primary pediatric AML cells with diverse genotypes. We used microarrays to define differential regulation of gene expression in AML cell lines with or without MLL gene rearrangements following pharmacologic inhibition of DOT1L.
